    Hi ladies!

    Listening to Pandora while working and Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's version of "Over the Rainbow" came on... the island sounding version with the ukulele... I know it's probably been done already but I teared up as I realized that this is the song I will walk down the aisle to! We're getting married in Jamaica, by the way, in June! Laughing

     

    What have/are all you other ladies planning on walking down the aisle to that is non-traditional? First dances? Father/daughter dances? Just wanna hear everyone's cool ideas!

    @CaressaW: Good choice!

    I'll be walking down the aisle to "Songbird" by Eva Cassidy.  Our first dance will be "All I Ask of You" - Emmy Rossum version.  Father/daughter dance will maybe be "The Prayer" by Andrea Bocelli and Celine Dion. :)

    Our recessional song is "Walkin on Sunshine" and our groomsmen will be introduced together at the reception rather than with the bridesmaids and they'll be walking into California Love

    Thank you! Love all of your songs ladies!

    @berkie... I love Emmy Rossum, I'll have to look up her version and listen to it, I bet it's beautiful!

    @amnystik... I loved that "I'm Yours/Over the Rainbow" skimming through all the Straight No Chaser videos now lol.

    @M.Ruder... LOVE "Free" by Zac Brown Band... such a beautiful song!

    Princessamy I had a hard time finding songs as well, until I just happened to hear them at some point... when I heard the songs they clicked! Our first dance will be to "Us Time" by Stoney LaRue... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUuvsC8kFHc he begins the song at 2 min and 50 seconds into the video.

    Are there restrictions on what you can play in a Catholic church?

    @CaressaW: That's too funny because I just decided yesterday I'm going to walk down the Aisle to the song! "Wizard of Oz" was my all time favourite movie as a child so "Over The Rainbow" in this modern way is just beautiful and perfect! Good choice! :)

    My bridesmaids walked down to a string version of My Immortal by Evanascene. I walked down the aisle to Christmas Cannon Rock. It starts out very peaceful and then added in is an electric guitar.  It was really cool, still tasteful though, and a total surprise.
